IN THE MATTER OF HOMEADVISOR, INC., D/B/A ANGI LEADS AND HOMEADVISOR POWERED BY ANGI Docket No. 9407. Order, May 26, 2022 Order granting respondent’s motion for an additional extension of time to oppose the motion for summary decision. SECOND ORDER EXTENDING TIME TO OPPOSE MOTION FOR SUMMARY DECISION On April 22, 2022, the Commission granted Respondent HomeAdvisor, Inc.’s motion to extend until May 27, 2022 the time for Respondent to oppose Complaint Counsel’s motion for summary decision. Respondent sought that extension so that it could serve subpoenas on and take depositions of individuals who submitted declarations in support of Complaint Counsel’s motion. See 16 C.F.R. § 3.24(a)(3). Respondent now seeks an additional 10-day extension. Respondent asserts that the limited availability of certain third-party witnesses and the timing of certain thirdparty declarants’ document productions have resulted in depositions being scheduled up until just two days before the current deadline for their opposition. Respondent represents that Complaint Counsel, as a professional courtesy, do not oppose the requested extension. Under Commission Rule 4.3(b), the Commission may for good cause shown extend any time limit prescribed in the Rules. 16 C.F.R. § 4.3(b). In light of the timing of Respondent’s thirdparty discovery and the relatively short length of the requested extension, the Commission finds good cause to grant the extension to allow Respondent to complete its depositions and prepare its opposition.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Respondent’s Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to Oppose Motion for Summary Decision, filed May 23, 2022, is GRANTED. The deadline for submission of Respondent’s opposition to Complaint Counsel’s motion for summary decision shall be 5:00 pm EDT on June 6, 2022.

By the Commission.
